The Illicitor's Code #1 129: Mouse's Betrayal 2
Dim-Dim should have known this would happen. But he didn't know, and never anticipated, that Mouse's will did this. His hatred towards Dim-Dim ran this deep, leading the man to finish his life. Luckily, Velicia and Jonathan had been sent here to help Dim-Dim. Although it would take them at least an hour for their jet to arrive, and Dim-Dim wasn't sure he could hold out that long without a clear tactic. So, while circling the forest and cliffs below him, just less than twenty meters away from the elephant-sized Type A monster behind him, he pondered tactics. As an Illicitor with the superpower to transform into any animal, Dim-Dim was categorized as one with good agility and movement abilities, often paired with skilled trap-makers like Jay. But today, he had no venator to set up those traps, so he had to create his own. Dim-Dim surveyed the area and was surprised to find a mud pool below him. Then he glanced at the sea not far from their current location. There was a fifty percen
The Illicitor's Code #1 130: Velicia's Funeral and Safe House
The funeral ceremony of Velicia took place in Safe City, and Dim-Dim could only witnessed it by online through the live streaming video on his phone.On Dim-Dim's phone screen, Velicia appeared so pale and beautiful, with her fiery red hair, indicating that her emotional state just before death was one of great anger.Dim-Dim also felt that anger until last night he couldn't stop imagining killing Mouse, choking him, slamming him to the ground after what that evil man did to Velicia. But it wasn't right to do so, and it seemed Society would hold a closed trial for Mouse after intentionally killing an Illicitor, drugging the van driver and the Illicitor working with him, shooting another venator in the arm, and intending to commit premeditated murder against an off-duty Illicitor. Mouse's punishment would be severe, Justin said, but Dim-Dim wanted Mouse to be sentenced to death, and besides that punishment, nothing else would suffice for him.And as he watched Velicia's closed coffin a
The Illicitor's Code #1 131: The Monster Virus
"Amma got contaminated with a disease from the koi fish in the laboratory," Justin muttered. "And if she got infected, it means the virus on the fish caused by the monster can also spread to other humans, right?""Right," said Dim-Dim, forcing himself to speak, as his mind began to fill with thoughts of Amma.Amma is sick. Amma is dying. Maybe this is what Amma wanted to say all along when the girl chased her to Safe City New Jersey, but never had the chance to speak because Dim-Dim always withdrew from her after that incident."Let's check the next room," mumbled Dim-Dim, and then they left Amma's room.The next two bedrooms were empty, clean, and tidy, obviously prepared for them.Dim-Dim chose the room right next to Amma's, while Justin chose the one at the far end, closest to the bathroom. He grabbed a towel from his bag, threw his bag onto the bed, and then slipped into the bathroom, eager to clean himself up. Meanwhile, Dim-Dim placed his bag on the table, then flopped onto his
The Illicitor's Code #1 132: Few Days Before the Trial
"Until then, let me take care of you," said Dim-Dim before can holding back, and Amma immediately shook her head."No, I'm fine," said Amma. "I'm sick, that's true, but I can still carry on with my daily activities just fine."Dim-Dim sighed. "Alright. Besides, I'm still angry with you," he said. But he still hoped that the issue would be resolved between them, hence why he stayed."I apologize for everything that happened between us in the past few months," said Amma. And reluctantly, Dim-Dim nodded. But Amma wasn't finished. "But I didn't take you to my workplace to make you jealous of Marcus, Dim-Dim. I took you to my workplace to show Marcus that I have a boyfriend, and he should stop flirting with me and making me hope that one day I could date him and gain the attention of my parents, which wouldn't compare to the genuine love I had that time. That's what I wanted Dim-Dim. I wanted to show Marcus that I have you, not the other way around. I..." Amma
The Illicitor's Code #1 133: Jonathan's Eulogy for Velicia
On that afternoon, Dim-Dim and his friends received shocking news from the Society. It turned out that the previous night, Damian and Clarinassa's house had been attacked by unknown assailants. Fortunately, Damian and Clarinassa always locked their bedroom and kept weapons in a drawer under the bed. They managed to defeat the criminals and apprehend them, then handed them over to the police. Surprisingly, one of the attackers was Dr. ZA, and the others were men paid by him, two of whom were underage.The global community was both terrified and amazed by this news, and Dim-Dim, Pedro, and Justin couldn't get enough of watching the recreation video of the incident."Wow, look at how Damian reloads Clarinassa's gun in just two seconds? The woman moves like a ghost, so fast," Pedro exclaimed."They're the perfect duo," muttered Justin, slowing down the video at the scene where Damian and Clarinassa jumped and rolled behind the sofa, using everything as a shield. "Clary and Damian clearly
The Illicitor's Code #1 134: A Day Before Go to Hague
The sun was shining brightly while Dim-Dim and Amma spread out a carpet in the backyard. Once they finished, Justin immediately took off his t-shirt and lay down on the carpet, smiling at the sun."It feels nice," Justin exclaimed cheerfully. "Even though there's not enough sun outside today. I forgot it's still February.""Haha, maybe you'd be happier living in a tropical country," Amma said as she sat down beside him, then handed him a heated frozen pizza.Justin eagerly accepted the pizza. "Thanks, Amma." Then he ate it in relaxed bites.Meanwhile, Pedro watched Dim-Dim transforming into a flying squirrel and flying from tree to tree. After satisfyingly transforming into several types of insects and squirrels, he turned into an eagle and soared high into the sky.Flapping his wings leisurely, he stretched them quietly while enjoying the thermal winds.While flying, Dim-Dim felt free. He felt he could go anywhere he wanted, and
The Illicitor's Code #1 135: Pedro's Words
The Hague! Tomorrow they will depart there! Dim-Dim is so excited. In his lifetime, he has never been to the Netherlands before and is curious about what the country is like.Nevertheless, he couldn't dwell on The Hague for long because he was soon called again by the prosecutor, and they resumed practicing question and answer sessions to prepare for potential questioning from Dr. ZA's lawyer to Dim-Dim.After two hours, Dim-Dim finally could relax in his room and pack some warm clothes he owned. Cassini mentioned that it's likely to be below freezing in The Hague right now, so Dim-Dim decided to bring extra socks, a winter coat, and earmuffs."Remember, we're not going on vacation, so hold back your excitement," Justin said with a flat expression, and Dim-Dim laughed."Oh, come on, I know you're excited too," Dim-Dim said.Justin chuckled and rubbed his nose. "I can't wait for all of this to be over. Dr. ZA has really messed up everyone's lives." Then he sat on Dim-Dim's bed and glan
The Illicitor's Code #1 136: Their Departure to The Hague
Pedro will return to his hometown now that the monsters are gone, and he wants Dim-Dim to take care of Amma for him.Dim-Dim pondered Pedro's words for a moment, then nodded. "Yes, I will take care of Amma for you."Upon hearing Dim-Dim's sincere assurance, Pedro immediately looked relieved. "Thank you, buddy."Pedro then left Dim-Dim's room, leaving Dim-Dim with thoughts about Amma."Do you remember how he used to make time to meet you once a week even though he had a tough job and was actually sick?" Pedro had asked. "The girl was suffering at that time. But most importantly to her was you; you shouldn't feel lonely, you shouldn't have a reason to feel unloved."And if a girl treats Dim-Dim like that, it also means she wants to be treated that way. It means Amma wants someone to prioritize her, not make her lonely, and always make her feel loved.Message delivered, Pedro... he thought before closing his eyes.****When he woke up, the first thing he saw was Amma sitting on the edge
